Any chance this will be rolled out to platforms other than I-phone?

* Uploading your scores to a personal page on pdga.com
* Sharing scores via Facebook
* Using the app for live scoring at PDGA events
* Enhanced course directory features, including detailed layout information (hole lengths, pars), maps, etc.
* Round stats - fairways in regulation, putts, etc.

Once we add some of these additional features, there will be a free version of the app, which will be limited to the initial scorecard and course directory search features. The free version will include sponsored ads. The free version will most likely not include the ability to generate round ratings.

Anyone who buys the initial version of the app will be entitled to future upgrade for an indefinite period of time. While I'm sure there are people that are going to say that $4.99 is too much, I really feel that the value you are getting for that investment, especially with unlimited upgrades, is a pretty sweet deal.
